Im bluff folding alot
That really confuse the villains :D

Sure you want to bluff the pots in situations where you missed the board and the
villain(s) act weak, and when you want to punish loose openers with 3 bet bluffs.
Everytime you smell weakness, bluff ;)

This Q cant be answered because every hand you have Is a different story and each Is special
You cant play the same hand twice
You cant go in a hand and tell your self now i am going to bluff you have to see the situation of the hand and know your oponnent before you make a bluff.

bluffing is part of the game
I will take a shot at the pot bluffing preflop and flop, whenever I feel there is opportunity
Bluffing at the turn and river is a bit more tricky as it has be more realistically and consistent with how you play the hand.

Your opponent is going to miss as often as you do....so if you want the pot, ya bluffing is necessary. A big bet out of nowhere on the river will get a call with ace high in low limit so you have to tell a good story. Plus in telling the story you can get a feel if your opponent caught anything because letting the hand go is just as important. Don't expect to be bluffing your opponent off of big hands in low limit, just bet on the fact that they missed and act like you didn't. With that in mind....if you catch a big hand, make it look like a bluff.

I rarely come out with bluffs during the early game, I try to pick up on some habits of the other players on the tables first... but YES, I bluff a fair amount in online poker. I probably bluff more than I should, as it has definitely bitten me in the rear a few times.

Many of the same aspects apply as live poker, such as how you play the hand and how the other players on the table play theirs. I think it's pretty much the same as live minus the body language and other tells you can pick up from looking the player in the eyes.

When I read the Green Book of Phil Gordon. It describes the moments when you can and when you need to bluff. But poker is interesting because it does not have 100% of instructions to victory, and every tournament, and the player must pick up your key. Hightrollers own and to small Bain your. The High Roller tournament that regularly held at PS unlikely people will call all-in early on not having on hand a good cards, meanwhile in the poker school people play more relaxed and there bluff may be broken at all.

Of course, the bluff is of great importance in poker, and it is also important for your own strategy, thanks to a bluff your opponents cannot read completely yours style of play. The simple fact consists that the bluff is much less successful reception in wild online games, and it has to play not such important role in your strategy as in olden days.

Bluff

As others have wrote bluffing is a part of poker. For me depends on my position at the table and how others have bet. Small bets from others usually is a key or when or not to bluff

I don't bluff online, but I have had many miss-clicks that have either gone in my favor or depleted my stack :pcguru:

the best moment depends on many factors position cards to what type of players you face for me the ideal time is when the opponent shows weakness after being extremely aggressive means that he does not complete his project and he does not want to risk more chips and to win in Online poker is needed bluff bluffs semifaroles good luck greetings:rolleyes:

if you don’t learn to use the bluff technique and recognize it, the game will not be complete in all its beauty, a variety of tactics and techniques, strategies.
if I see an opportunity, I will certainly use a bluff depending on the situation at the table and the opponent’s postflop play

With online poker it’s easier to bluff more often because you are taking the human factor out of it.


You might also say that its harder to bluff because you are taking the human factor out of it. There are many tells when someone might be weak. Eyes, throat, hands etc etc.

I try to limit my bluffs to early on in the tournament when the blinds are at the lowest. Also when I bluff I fire all three streets.

Just like in live, there are definitely ways to get tells in online poker. The issue with "timing" tells is theres always an unknown variable like if the person walks away from there computer, or gets distracted by something to throw off timing. Besides timing though, bet sizes can become a major tell.

There have been times where I've run a bluff every third hand I've played and times where I've gone 3+ hours only betting the nuts. The question is simply too broad.

its very difficult to bluff online because most of the players are loose aggros and will call down with air
they also use the bluff as a weapon betting each street to swell the pot hoping htier bluff gets through on the river
the best thing is to use their betting pattersn against them especially when you've hit

bluffing I find id more effectinve int he later stages of the tournament when the money is at risk, funny enough watching the wsop 2018 it seems as though there was very little bluffing in the early rounds....most of the exciting commentator hyped up play comes from the later stages when players are several million deep and the pots are worth bluffing at and it doesn't necessarily dictate your tournament life.

Bluffing is essential in hold em whether online or live I have a bad poker face so I have easier time bluffing successful online
PLO is tougher to read the bluff cause it’s hard to put people on 4 cards than 2. Plus every board is a scary board so it’s more about math than deduction of range of holding hands
